“You’ll get tariffs like you’ve never seen” (Confused clapping, what’s a tariff?) “The gas, it will go higher than the little sign at the pump has numbers for” (Cheering) “Groceries, it’s a beautiful word. You’ll never afford those” (Crowd goes wild!!!)

Ilan Pappé argues Oct 7th was an attempt to preempt a genocide Sinwar knew was planned. I’d assumed 1) prisoner exchange had been successful historically and 2) they couldn’t know Biden would encourage genocide, but this expands the picture www.palestinechronicle.com/why-al-aqsa-...

I’m nearing a finished chapter on 19th century British policy toward the Ottomans and Jewish settlement in Palestine. The obsession with getting mail through the region (communication with eastern colonies) leaves me wondering if they ever would have tried Israel if they had internet or phones

Reading old Restorationists/non-Jewish Zionists, you get lots of race-thinking. Some race-thinking that zionists today still like (Jews are same people as in the Bible), or controversial characteristics (Jews have more fortitude than Arabs), to the anti-Semitic (Jewish race is good with money)

I don’t really understand the explosion of “white Christian nationalism” as a term. It seems to cover what the left traditionally calls reactionaries, but in such a way as to not to offend *all* Christians, only the bad guys

My weird 9/11 ritual is reading bin Laden’s letter to America and it’s always striking that example 1 for “because you attacked us and continue to attack us” is Palestine. It’s the center of the world

Ben Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.

During research on doomsday bunkers for Future of Denial, I had a laugh at this rich guy asking “How do I maintain authority over my security force after the event?” Someone suggested disciplinary collars for the guards. You know the guards would just kill the lords.

I’ve seen arguments that Zionism is a type of anti-Semitism before. But I’ve never seen a quote quite like this from *Theodor Herzl* the father of political Zionism: “the anti-Semites will be our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies”

The reaction to Hasan really shows what they meant when they said “we need a Rogan of the left” huh?

Real writers will start feeling pressure to include a “no AI was used in this book” statement. In years ahead, if anyone is still reading us, it will be such a grim artifact signaling a culture in steep cognitive decline

People will believe “socialists ‘support making everything more expensive’” while capitalists only exist by extracting surplus. This couple wants to be swindled and got confused

Let’s get outside the box. Would they let him build a mini trump tower over the Oval Office? Bulldoze the Supreme Court building? Turn the Washington monument into a big T. Rip out Lincoln and plop a big Jeffrey on our new and improved Epstein memorial?

It’s so obvious to me that trans rights are basic human rights. But I have to wonder of those on the fence, who haven’t devoted any critical thought to the matter, can’t they develop a moral heuristic like: what do the stupidest fascists who love brutality think?

I lost sleep this week because I was too excited to get back to teaching this semester. That’s never happened at any job before. Either I’m a real sicko or I have one of the last good jobs in America at a college that is actually a good place to teach

After my time adjucting I can’t pass up a chance to remind you this is the actual crisis in higher education. “I recently heard about a student who was shocked to discover, upon dropping food off at a local pantry, that their instructor was the one picking it up.”

Last day of summer. I do lots of classics over the summer, mostly new but a few rereads. I’m finishing @devintoshea.bsky.social The Veiled Prophet (highly recommend). I loved Ovid’s myths. I try to avoid reading for my current research and focus on becoming more educated. This was summer 2026

I’ve read and loved several of Doctorow’s books, but these daily blog/threads are becoming something I’m thinking with every day. Today, just before semester starts, I’m thinking about what Goodhart’s Law means for all those student learning outcomes proliferating in higher ed.

paperback for The Story of CO2 is the Story of Everything is officially out. It got good reviews and I'm pretty sure it's not like any other climate book you've read. Below is my best attempt to summarize the broad themes of the book. If any of this interests you pls buy so I can continue doing this

A classic response to plague and other big disease outbreaks—which we haven’t properly seen yet in climate denial (but definitely will)—is blaming it on sexual immorality. You really can’t fathom how weird it will get, but climate denial will include sex stuff for sure

For educators the next few weeks are a niche season: pre-fall. I want to get back to the classroom and writing routines. I do not want to write syllabi or toggle LMS course settings. I want to see colleagues. I don’t want to hate AI ruining everything all day. Oh yeah it’s pre-fall!

Reminds me of an opening case in Barbara Fields’ classic essay “Slavery, Race and Ideology in the United States of America” I first read it in the book Racecraft during covid, when doctors were doing race science commentary on why the virus hit groups differently studythepast.com/4333_spring1...
